An attorney with the Chan Law Firm, LLC, Ophelia W. Chan assists people in Atlanta and Marietta, Georgia, with their estate planning needs. She handles legal matters, including elder law, estate planning and probate, fiduciary duties and administration of estates. Ms. Chan's cases involve wills, powers of attorney, health care directives, estate and trust litigation, guardianships, the contesting of wills, conservatorships, and the representation of families and estate representatives.
When she was 5 years old, Ms. Chan's family left her birthplace of China and immigrated to the United States, settling in New York City. After she graduated from the University of Massachusetts Amherst, she attended Georgia State University College of Law and earned her Juris Doctor. Ms. Chan started her legal career working for the Cobb County Probate Court, representing people in probate matters. She decided to make this area of law her focus.
Ms. Chan returned to the probate court in 2009 to accept a position as the chief clerk and even assisted with cases as an assistant judge. This experience gives her the ability to provide clients with an inside understanding of the probate process, empowering them to make educated decisions concerning their estate and potential health challenges. She is admitted to the Georgia Superior Courts.
Staying involved in the legal community is important to Ms. Chan. She has shared her experiences and knowledge with other attorneys at continuing legal education seminars and through bar associations. When she is not helping clients with their estate plans, she enjoys spending time with her husband and two children.
